What Are You Using Your Buggy For?

By that I mean, off-road, daily worker, track car, bitsa of all.

I am moving mine towards road legal track car, with more time going towards reliablity (something thats been a problem in the past (electrics)) and improved suspension.

Track cars can involve big numbers if you go for the power, so my idea is light weight, suspension set up properly and try to catch people on the bends, and fingers crossed enough power to keep up on the straights.

I'm just concentrating on getting mine built and road legal, then I'll decide, but for sure I'll likely use it to get muddy!

Mine will be Track monster/insane road car, mainly be used over summer to go to/from work and as amny track days as i can.

My bro has a Brian James race trailer so i can tow it to different events/tracks.

Mainly just to have fun around the streets, but I do go to shows, have use it on a sprint track and it gets muddy now and again.
Most important thing is to bring a smile to my face every time I drive it.

I'm building mine to be great at offroad, so adjustable height, fiddle breaks to make the most of two wheel drive, winch, big chincky tyres on steelies. Then, lower suspension, add the road wheels and leave all the other cars behind ;D
The buggy wont be my practical car, im thinking of getting a defender 90 as an almost practical car with a v8 :eek:

Hehehe! I saw it and made my old man call straight away! It was a very good price at £800 for the deluxe SVA kit, that's why i went all the way down there from cumbria to get it! ;D
Then a week later, there was a nice freestyle part build on ebay that only sold for £600, but i got a bucket load of spares with mine as you see in the pic of my dad strapping it all down.
Sorry kev :p

I'll probably be buried in mine as the the build has been so stressful it'll probably kill me.

If I do survive however, I will be using it to commute to work and go to the occasional show.
